On Fitness and PT (Quick Post)

This came across my newsfeed, after reviewing it and disappointingly noticing (yet sadly unsurprising) that only 1 physio (Kelly Starrett) out of 100 people was listed. It begs the question, what must we do as a profession to become more influential in this domain? This list of course isn’t from a scholarly organization or a high impact media publication (TIME, NYT, The Republic etc) and it did include Dr. Oz and other such charlatans, which is an approach we should absolutely avoid. However as the “movement experts” It does highlight an area needing improvement. I think we should strive to become more influential in the domain of health and fitness, even just for the sake of drowning some of the the nonsense that is currently being disseminated.
